[7]Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither thou wentest up to offer sacrifice. |
| [8]BehindH310 the doorsH1817 also and the postsH4201 hast thou set upH7760[H8804] thy remembranceH2146: for thou hast discoveredH1540[H8765] thyself to another than me, and art gone upH5927[H8799]; thou hast enlargedH7337[H8689] thy bedH4904, and madeH3772[H8799] thee a covenant with them; thou lovedstH157[H8804] their bedH4904 whereH3027 thou sawestH2372 itH8804. |

[11]And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not? |

[12]I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee. |
| [13]When thou criestH2199[H8800], let thy companiesH6899 deliverH5337[H8686] thee; but the windH7307 shall carry them all awayH5375[H8799]; vanityH1892 shall takeH3947[H8799] them: but he that putteth his trustH2620[H8802] in me shall possessH5157[H8799] the landH776, and shall inheritH3423[H8799] my holyH6944 mountainH2022; |
[13]When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain; |
| [14]And shall sayH559[H8804], Cast ye upH5549[H8798], cast ye upH5549[H8798], prepareH6437[H8761] the wayH1870, take upH7311[H8685] the stumblingblockH4383 out of the wayH1870 of my peopleH5971. |
[14]And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my people. |
| [15]For thus saithH559[H8804] the highH7311[H8802] and lofty OneH5375[H8737] that inhabitethH7931[H8802] eternityH5703, whose nameH8034 is HolyH6918; I dwellH7931[H8799] in the highH4791 and holyH6918 place, with him also that is of a contriteH1793 and humbleH8217 spiritH7307, to reviveH2421[H8687] the spiritH7307 of the humbleH8217, and to reviveH2421[H8687] the heartH3820 of the contrite onesH1792.[H8737] |
[15]For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. |
| [16]For I will not contendH7378[H8799] for everH5769, neither will I be alwaysH5331 wrothH7107[H8799]: for the spiritH7307 should failH5848[H8799] beforeH6440 me, and the soulsH5397 which I have madeH6213.[H8804] |
[16]For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit would fail before me, and the souls which I have made. |
| [17]For the iniquityH5771 of his covetousnessH1215 was I wrothH7107[H8804], and smoteH5221[H8686] him: I hidH5641[H8687] me, and was wrothH7107[H8799], and he went onH3212[H8799] frowardlyH7726 in the wayH1870 of his heartH3820. |
[17]For the iniquity of his covetousness I was wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart. |
| [18]I have seenH7200[H8804] his waysH1870, and will healH7495[H8799] him: I will leadH5148[H8686] him also, and restoreH7999[H8762] comfortsH5150 unto him and to his mournersH57. |
[18]I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners. |
| [19]I createH1254[H8802] the fruitH5108 of the lipsH8193; PeaceH7965, peaceH7965 to him that is far offH7350, and to him that is nearH7138, saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068; and I will healH7495 himH8804. |
[19]I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him. |
| [20]But the wickedH7563 are like the troubledH1644[H8737] seaH3220, when it cannotH3201[H8799] restH8252[H8687], whose watersH4325 cast upH1644[H8799] mireH7516 and dirtH2916. |
[20]But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. |
| [21]There is no peaceH7965, saithH559[H8804] my GodH430, to the wickedH7563. |
[21]There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked. |
